Dont get my wrong now I love seeing them bad a$$ street cars and more power to ya, I'll just smile and give a thumbs up while I'm driving by in my big American made suv like it has a egg under the throttle pedal.

"The novelty wears off quick,but can't be beat.I miss driving my Olds around town but don't miss all the headaches that come from 700 hp on the street 30 miles from home and my tools.

LOL...... The thought had crossed my mind to put flows and a nitrous kit adn other mustang mod's on my ex-wifes HO V8 explorer, that thing ran real strong and I wasn't affraid to race anybody from a stop light, I especially enjoyed whooping up on them big pipe ricers that thought they had a hotrod. They would look at me and think I got this chump when I reved it up at the light trying to get a race and then I would run off and leave them in the dust.
I can see it now, skinnies up front and ET streets slicks on the back I would of had the first explorer in the 11's...lol

I drive it whenever I can!! We take it to local cruises,to get the boys from football practice,or just to go get coffee on sunday morning.
It runs 10.70's on a street tune,but we have the tranny(we think) to spray it this year so we are hoping for mid to low 9's with a full effort we hope to get there with no more than a 300 hp. shot,but we are going to see where 175 gets us to start with.
Thanks for the interest and comments[img]
